  1. What is the difference between Seamless and welded pipes? Stainless steel welded pipes are created by joining together opposite edges of a flat iron strip. Welded pipe is produced from a strip that is roll formed and welded to produce a tube. Welded steel pipe production process is simple, high production efficiency, variety specifications, equipment investment, but the general strength is lower than the seamless steel pipe. Stainless Steel Seamless pipe is made of a single piece of metal and has no jointed steel pipe on the surface, which is called seamless steel pipe. Seamless steel pipe is made from a single piece of metal on the surface of steel pipe joints. Seamless pipe as the name denotes is a pipe without a seam or a weld-joint in contrast to Seam or Welded pipe. Difference between Seamless and welded pipes. Manufacturing process To manufacture Stainless steel seamless pipes, ingot steel or billets are used as raw materials. Seamless piping begins as a solid cylindrical hunk of steel called a billet. While still hot, billets are pierced through the center with a mandrel. The next step is rolling and stretching the hollow billet. The billet is precisely rolled and stretched until it meets the length, diameter and wall thickness as specified by the customer order. Stainless steel welded pipes are created by joining together opposite edges of a flat iron strip. The metal is put through very high heat which makes it malleable. The pipe is then passed through a groove and a rolling mill. Thin iron sheets are heated and passed through a cone-shaped opening forcing its edges to curl and create a pipe. The edges are then folded and welded together to finish the pipe. Molding Process Welded steel pipe is welded, it is cut into by the steel strip narrow steel strip, and then wrapped into a tubular shape with the cold mold. Seamless steel pipe is cylindrical ingot hot pull into a tube, so cannot see the weld. Length A seamless pipe is relatively Short in length. Welding pipes can be manufactured in long continuous length. Costs and price Seamless pipes are little bit costly than Welded pipes because of the raw materials, manufacturing equipment used in seamless pipes. But sometimes by the market pressure, welded pipe is more expensive, so if you met this situation, don’t hesitate to purchase the seamless steel pipe for the same dimensions.

  2. Performance and Usage Seamless steel pipe has better pressure capacity So it is widely applied in high pressure equipment, and thermal, boiler industries. Welded steel pipes can withhold 20% less working pressure than seamless ones. Welded pipes are more preferred in aerospace, automobile and electronics industries where the budget is comparatively low, and so is the work pressure put on the pipes. Santosh Steel Industry is a leading manufacturer and Exporters of stainless-steel Welded pipes and tubes in India.
